He was once a Root Ninja!
Mitsuba's words made Yuuki pause.
At this point in time, Yuuki had a guess.
Do you have his information?
Here, Section Chief.
Mitsuba accurately found Kabuto's application form from the large pile of documents she was holding against her chest.
Yuuki took it and saw, 'It's you, Dream Weaver!'
After confirming it was Kabuto, Yuuki no longer hesitated.
Let's go, lead the way!
Mitsuba didn't hesitate and immediately led Yuuki to Kabuto's room.
Yuuki was still very much looking forward to meeting Kabuto.
Just before reaching the room, Yuuki adjusted his expression, revealing a faint smile.
And Kabuto, who had been waiting alone in the room for a long time, heard the approaching footsteps.
He habitually put on the harmless, faintly smiling expression he had cultivated over years as a spy.
When Mitsuba brought Yuuki to the room.
Yuuki spoke directly.
Yakushi Kabuto, right? Welcome to the Military Police Force!
Why are you looking for me? Tell me, I won't treat you differently because you were once with Root.
To show his kindness, Yuuki's smile deepened a few points, making him appear even more radiant.
Kabuto respectfully stood up and bowed to Yuuki, wearing the harmless smile he had perfected over years of espionage.
Lord Yuuki!
I want to ask if the Military Police Force has obtained the original Root data?
Kabuto didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.
At this moment, Mitsuba looked at her Section Chief, then at the young man named Kabuto.
A strange feeling arose in Mitsuba's heart; she kept feeling that there was something very similar.
But what was it? Mitsuba thought about it but couldn't figure it out, so she dismissed it as her own imagination and stopped pondering.
Yuuki, on the other hand, remembered the pile of scrolls Kakashi had given him, and then nodded.
We got some of it.
Kabuto's expression was a bit agitated at this point, unable to maintain his composure.
Lord Yuuki, can I take a look? For this, I am willing to pay any price!
Yuuki pondered for a while; he actually wanted to agree to Kabuto, after all, Kabuto was indeed a talent.
But agreeing so easily would seem a bit cheap.
After a brief thought, Yuuki finally shook his head and said.
Kabuto, you must understand, the Military Police Force has its own system, and this is not Root; it's impossible for you to access such core secrets as soon as you join.
Yuuki's expression was very serious, as if Root's information was truly very important.
Kabuto's eyes quickly dimmed, and the harmless smile returned to his face.
Seeing this, Yuuki spoke again.
Considering your special circumstances, as a former member of Root, Kabuto, can you tell me the reason and purpose for wanting this information?
Yuuki asked Kabuto again in a gentle tone.
Hope reignited in Kabuto's eyes; he directly recounted his origins, from being adopted by Yakushi Nonou, treating her as his mother, to joining Root for spy missions to protect his comrades.
Mitsuba's eyes were a little red after hearing Kabuto's story.
Yuuki felt that his goal was almost achieved; this emotional manipulation of Kabuto should be considered a success.
Although it was partly because Kabuto was still young, at least he was willing to share his unknown experiences.
This in itself represented a kind of trust.
People always lean towards those they are familiar with or who are familiar with them.
Just as the person Kabuto initially wanted to find was Orochimaru, besides Danzo, Orochimaru was the one who understood Kabuto the most.
Yuuki pondered for a moment after listening.
Kabuto, since that's the reason, Senior Nonou is also a hero of Konoha!
Now that Danzo is dead, it is indeed time to welcome Konoha's hero home!
Then Yuuki took out Kabuto's transcript.
Alright, Kabuto, you passed the Military Police Force's assessment with the highest difficulty!
Because of how much I value you, I will entrust you with the mission of bringing Senior Nonou back to Konoha.
At this point, Kabuto's eyes began to light up.
Afterward, I will give you the relevant intelligence, and at the same time, to help you become familiar with the Military Police Force's work procedures more quickly, I will personally take you on missions.
Then Yuuki paused, "Of course, it will be my Shadow Clone."
Both Yakushi Nonou and Kabuto are rare talents, especially Kabuto.
Although Yuuki hadn't gone to Qing Yue's lab yet, he imagined that besides a bit more data, there should still be no progress.
The Uchiha Clan really isn't suited for research!
Given the importance of both of them, it would be worth Yuuki making a trip himself, but he had just promised Hiruzen Sarutobi to stay in Konoha.
To immediately run out of the Village to cause trouble would be a bit too improper.
Moreover, even though he agreed to Kabuto so readily now, he still needed to figure out how to reasonably and compliantly turn the task into a Military Police Force mission.
Ultimately, Yuuki decided to send a Shadow Clone, and then find a Hyuga Clan Ninja from the Military Police Force; the problem shouldn't be too big.
After hearing Yuuki's words, Kabuto was extremely excited, finally acting a bit like a 13-year-old boy should.
Kabuto bowed deeply to Yuuki again.
Thank you, Section Chief!
Hearing the change in Kabuto's address, Yuuki's smile grew even wider.
Ah, Kabuto, now that you're in my bowl, don't even think about running away again!
Hmm, if that's the case, then go prepare. Remember, this is your first mission, no failures! Understand?
Understood, Section Chief!
Then Yuuki let Kabuto go report for duty himself.
Yuuki then went to the pile of scrolls Kakashi had sent him and rummaged through them for a while.
He finally found the scroll titled "Land of Earth Spy Roster," opened it, quickly scanned through it, and found Yakushi Nonou's alias, mission, and contact method.
After having someone copy it down, he sent it to Kabuto.
Kabuto had just finished reporting for duty; while he was alone in the office, someone delivered the intelligence.
After reading it, Kabuto completely relaxed and looked forward to the mission's arrival.
At this moment, Kabuto finally relaxed his mind, and his thoughts drifted a bit.
Kabuto recalled the details of his meeting with Yuuki; he realized that besides powerful individuals like Lord Danzo and Lord Orochimaru, who inspire fear.
They can also bring warmth and strength. He thought of Yuuki's radiant smile and the powerful strength he had heard about.
'Lord Yuuki truly is a man like the sun!'
Kabuto couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
At this moment, Kabuto again remembered the familiar feeling he had experienced from Yuuki.
Kabuto slowly compared everyone he knew in his mind to Yuuki, but he could never pinpoint where that sense of familiarity came from.
Kabuto finally gave up.
'Perhaps it's Lord Yuuki's natural charisma that makes people unconsciously feel familiar!'
Kabuto finally came to his conclusion.
